[Other Comments:] [Johannes Lundberg 2011-03-31: The protologue, in Fl. Cap. (Harvey) 1: 262, says: "P. Mayeri (Harv.); /---/ P. ficaria, E. Mey.! in Hb. Drege, non Willd. P. ovalifolium, E. & Z.! 461, non Sw., also Hareae, E. & Z.! 459, 460. Hab. Between Eikenboom and Riebekskasteel, Cape, Drege! Tigerberg, Witsenberg and near Constantia, E. & Z.! (Herb. T.C.D., Hook., Sond.). /---/ Our specimens are in very bad order, and the description may need to be corrected. Can this be the P. ciliatum, Cav. Diss. t. 118. f. 2, (P. parnassioides, L'Her.) which is said to be different from the plant of L'Heretier."]
